Popis: | The fodder resources, nutrition, and food supply of free-ranging Bactrian camels, Przewalski horses, and saigas on a fenced forb-grass steppe pasture are studied. The species composition of consumed plants, food selectivity, digestibility, and amount of consumed forage are estimated seasonally. All three species differ in all diet parameters. |
